Trees Continue to Be a Danger

Mike Solomon of East Hampton sent this photograph, which was taken moments after a large tree crashed across Middle Highway near his house. He said he was some distance away from the tree when it went with a loud snapping sound that brought at least one neighbor outside to see what had happened. He said he thought that the risk of trees coming down remained very high and that, in his opinion, no one should venture out on the roads quite yet.

Seems sensible advice. There will be plenty of time for sight-seeing once this thing leaves the region.
